@jodie_starlinghomestead: Basic Pavlova Recipe & the 2 techniques below: 6 egg whites 1.5 cups caster sugar 1 tablespoon vinegar 1 tablespoon cornflour Generous blob of vanilla Bake 1 hour then leave in oven till completely cool I used the same recipe for both pavs but for one I added ALL the ingredients AT ONCE to the mixing bowl and then beat for at least 10 mins (this was the Pav with raspberry jelly crystals and crushed flake bar) This resulted in a lower pavlova but the shell remained intact (my preferred pav) The other pavlova I used the traditional technique of beating the egg whites first then gradually adding the sugar and remaining ingredients. This resulted in a higher pavlova but the shell cracked and there was quite a bit of air space between the shell and the meringue interior. Jae preferred this one. (This was the Pavlova decorated with 🥝) No discernible taste difference IMO but I think ill continue with the ‘dump and beat’ option in future as its marginally easier to do and it was definitely easier to decorate with cream. PS - I’m no Pavlova expert - I only bake once a year for my husband’s birthday 🎂 #pavlova #EasyRecipe #birthdaycake #eggrecipe #meringue
